If you know the latitude and longitude of the island you can pinpoint its location on the map.
Wow! What a tangled web we weave!No, for myriad reasons.-- Longitude is east/west, not north/south.-- Zero degrees north is a line all around the earth, called the equator.-- Latitudes and longitudes describe places, not directions.-- If you want to define a direction using latitude and longitude, you need tohave the latitudes and longitudes of two different points. From those numbers,it's possible to calculate the direction from one point to the other.-- Well, OK. We can twist ourselves into a pretzel and give you something thatmight please you:True North is the direction from (any latitude and longitude) toward (90° north latitude),because (90° north latitude) is the definition of the north pole.(It's not necessary to give a longitude for the north pole, because all longitudesconverge there, so you can pick any number for it and you're correct.)
Tokyo, Japan is located at about 36 north, 140 east. Actually, there is a smaller city, Mitsukaido, Japan, which is closer, but Tokyo is the largest nearby city.Note: The question is in error. The correct question is What city has latitude 36 north and longitude 140 east? This is because latitude goes north and south, while longitude goes east and west.
Longitude is between about 40 and 48 degrees North.Latitude is between about 30 and 37 degrees East.
I'm not sure I understand the question. But of course the globe is a sphere, and a sphere can not be correctly represented on a 2D plane (eg. a paper map). The distortion effect is minimised though as the area represented gets smaller. The other is that grid north and magnetic north differ.

You have to find the correct longitude and latitude on the bottom right
your onwners manual will tell you how to reprogram the compass
They are lines of longitude, not latitude, but 60° East longitude is approximately correct for the 1600-mile long range.
The center of the 50-yard line at Soldier Field is located at 41.8623° north latitude 87.6166° west longitude. But it's not correct to say that the whole city is located there. There are an infinite number of other points also in Chicago where the coordinates are different.
I don`t think this is correct but... the Arabian Sea?

Longitude is correct.
Longitude is between about 40 and 48 degrees North.Latitude is between about 30 and 37 degrees East.
